There was almost no suspense. The ninth prince Yinzhen, stepping on his pair of skates that attracted the attention of all his brothers, surpassed last year's champion, his eldest brother Yinzhi, and finally won the first place in the competition.
Yinzhen, who finally got his revenge this year, gave his sixth brother a big hug as soon as he came off the stage, and then he didn't forget to annoy his eldest brother.
"Sixth brother, thank you so much for giving me these skates. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to beat Big Brother, and Big Brother too. You say you doubt Sixth Brother, but you can't doubt his brain. He loves eating, drinking, and having fun. Since these skates are related to fun, then these skates must be right. If you had asked the Imperial Household Department to make you a pair earlier, there's no way your younger brother would have won first place this year."
Looking at Yin'er who was acting so ungrateful after getting the advantage, Yinzhi was so angry that he almost fell over. It was already upsetting enough that he lost the game, and now you come to remind me, are you asking for trouble?
But there was no need for him to do anything because Yinzuo had already beaten him. Yin'er's smug look was too hateful. He was afraid that his elder brother would lose control of himself and deal with Yin'er, and take him, the ice skates supplier, with him.
"Old Nine, stop showing off. There are a lot of people here. If you anger Big Brother and have him chase you all over the field in front of so many people, you won't be able to make up for the loss of face with just first place."
Although Yinzhen wanted to irritate his elder brother, that didn't mean he wanted to go around in circles like this and embarrass himself. He immediately became obedient after hearing that, and his obedience instantly made the atmosphere between the brothers much more harmonious.
"Brother, congratulations. Even though you came in second, you won it based on your own strength. And although what Yinzhen said just now was irritating, he was right. If you had a pair of skates like him, it would be hard to say who would win the championship."
Regardless of whether it was because of the ice skates, it was right to just go along with the eldest brother now. Sure enough, after hearing what Yinzuo said, the eldest prince Yinzhi's expression looked a little better.
After the game, the second item is grabbing the ball. I have to say that watching this game makes Yinzuo feel much more comfortable than watching games in modern times. After all, compared to those guys in modern times who are all passive and lazy on the court, these Eight Banners kids are much more willing to risk their lives to grab the ball.
"Yes, beat him up. Who would go after the ball and throw dirty tricks at someone? That's too evil. Don't try to stop him. Let him beat you up."
"Hey, hey, hey, you guy on the red team with the ball, can you please show some teamwork? Can't you see the yellow team is all surrounding you? Why are you still clinging to the ball, waiting for someone to snatch it away? Give it to your teammates, they're waiting eagerly for it!"
"Hey, you guys on Team Yellow's side who are slacking off, why are you just standing there watching the show instead of going up to grab the ball? Come on, hurry up, Ole Ge."
Wow, Yinzuo has been very busy lately. He is like a referee at one moment and a supervisor at another. He supports the red team when they are lagging behind, and gets anxious when they lose points. He is so worried that his voice is almost hoarse from shouting himself hoarse.
"Hahahaha, even though I see this kind of scene every year, I still can't help but laugh every time. What's Sixth Brother trying to do? He's screaming himself hoarse."
What's the point? I just want to feel the exhilaration of shouting. Normally I have to act pretentiously wherever I go, but now I finally have this opportunity where I don't have to, so I just want to do it to my heart's content.
So the person who was most tired after this game was not the Eight Banners players playing on the field, but the Sixth Prince who was sitting on the ice bed watching the game with a telescope. That guy was so busy that he didn't even have time to drink a sip of water.
So after watching the ball-grabbing game, Yinzuo was basically half exhausted. It happened to be lunch time at this time, and Kangxi announced that everyone should take a break and have lunch first, and the game would continue after lunch.
Compared to the excitement of the morning's ball-grabbing game, Yinzuo was eerily quiet during lunch. Everyone knew the reason, and while they were all internally delighted, no one approached him to tease him, fearing they might upset him. Didn't they see Khan Ama still sitting at the head of the table? If he started to protect his son again, they wouldn't be able to afford to offend him, even though they were his sons, too.
Now it was time for Yinzuo to take the annual oath. It felt good to shout it out, but his voice was ruined. Not only was he feeling uncomfortable and burning, but even drinking water was difficult for him. He silently swore in his heart that he would not be like this next year.
After lunch, the half-exhausted Sixth Prince fell asleep leaning against the back of the chair not long after. Kangxi frowned as he watched Yinzuo sleeping like that, fearing that he would catch a cold, and hurriedly asked Liang Jiugong to help Dexi and send him to the imperial carriage to rest.
So in the afternoon, when Kangxi and the princes were watching the dragon-turning ball shooting game, Yinzuo was sleeping. When Kangxi and the princes went to review the Eight Banners soldiers, Yinzuo was sleeping. When Kangxi and the princes were watching the singing and dancing performance, Yinzuo was still sleeping.
"De...xi, Dexi~~"
When Yinzuo opened his eyes and found himself still inside the imperial carriage, he knew that the ice skating ceremony outside was not over yet. He rubbed his arms which were numb from being pressed, and called out to Dexi to come in. Unexpectedly, Yinzuo paused as soon as he squeezed out the first word.
Oh my God, I knew it would be like this. He shouldn’t be calling Dexi, he should be calling Baojuan... My throat.
Although Dexi was not in the imperial carriage, he had been paying attention to the movements inside. Although Yinzuo's voice was not loud, Dexi responded almost immediately when he spoke. He lifted the heavy curtain and entered the imperial carriage to take a look. Sure enough, his master had woken up.
"Master, why do you do this? You still can't remember it every year. Come, drink a glass of water to moisten your throat. When we get back later, I'll ask Doctor Li to come and see you. Based on past experience, it shouldn't be serious. I'll prescribe two doses of medicine and it will be enough."
Although Yinzuo wanted to say that he didn't need to take medicine and would be fine after two days of rest, he couldn't say it in the current situation. He simply didn't say anything and took the cup handed to him by Dexi and drank the water obediently.
It was not until evening that Kangxi and the princes returned. Yinzuo stood up and bowed. Before he could say anything, Kangxi waved at him, apparently knowing that his voice was no longer working.
"You said you come here every year like this. I really don't know what to say to you. This time when you go back, remember to take your medicine properly. Don't pour it out like you did last time. Dexi, you have to keep a close eye on him and make sure he drinks the medicine!"
Well, now he has no choice but to drink the medicine. Dexi usually stares at him closely when he holds the chicken feathers in his hand. Now that he has the order, it will be extremely difficult to trick him into going out and pouring out the medicine.
